There have been issues with the clutch on the '03 (if I recall correctly) but beyond that the drive train is off the shelf Hyundai and is used elsewhere in their lineup.
As the father of a 17yo new driver, you might want to check with your insurance agent before you get too far down this road. A 4cyl they might go with, but here in Texas the 6cyl was over the top on rates for a new driver.
Good luck.

Well i currently drive a 03 GT V6 5Speed, I have close to 115k on her. Somewhere around 30,000 miles, the power window stop working, it was replaced under warrenty and thats it! Never did nothing to hear, just changed the oil and replaced front brakes once, rear brakes twice. Oh-ya and tires! I really wanna trade her in, but she been so damn good to me, it hard to let her go!!

Sounds like you know how to drive a stick. I have never had premature failure of a clutch either, but have seen some who could kill one in <10K.

im looking at a 2004 tiburon gt v6 6 speed with about 30,000 miles on it. The person wants 13,500 for the car. I was wondering if that is a good deal or should i offer him a lower price. Any feed back would be much appreciated
thanks

He is asking top dollar. That is not a good price. 11K to 11.5K should be more in line with a private seller price.
Dealer price non-certified is only 12.4.
Methinks he is smoking his wheaties.

According to Kelly Blue Book the private party value for the Tiburon GT is only $12,400. If the vehicle is stock of course and in good condition. Never look at the excellent condition value, because most showroom cars arent even excellent. But even the excellent value is less than $13,500. Trade in is only $10,500. I feel that an offer above the trade value and below the private party Good condition value would be reasonable. The choice is yours. Also make sure you check the kbb web site for the values in your area as the prices do change. Good luck.
